Your Question:
How do we navigate uncertain times when our faith is constantly being tested?
Answer:
As a pastor and a man of faith, I've seen many people struggle with uncertainty and doubt. We all face challenges that test our faith, whether it's financial struggles, health concerns, or relationship issues. But the key is to remember that our faith is not just a feeling, but a choice. We must choose to trust in God's goodness and sovereignty, even when things don't make sense. When we're faced with uncertainty, it's easy to get caught up in our own doubts and fears. But we must be honest with ourselves and confront the issues of evidence. We need to ask ourselves why we believe what we believe, and whether our inherited beliefs have truly become our own. This is a process of growth and maturity in our faith, and it's not always easy. But it's in these moments of testing that our faith can become stronger and more intimate. As Jesus said, "Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?" (John 11:40). When we face challenges that contradict our faith, we have a choice to make. We can turn back in defeat, or we can choose to trust in God's goodness and sovereignty. It's not about common sense or what makes sense to us, but about trusting in the promises of God. As Hebrews 12:1-2 says, "Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus." Let's choose to trust in Him, even when it's hard.
